In our final installment of picks from Popular Science's Best of What's New 2006, we're featuring Stanley's FatMax Xtreme Fubar Demolition Tool, a new four-function tool inspired the way contractors often use hammers for more than just nails. Made from tempered steel, the mega-tool's design includes tiered jaws for bending boards and grabbing lumber, a tempered chisel that can cut and split, and a nail slot and a claw for prying. Sheathed in a rubber grip, the Fubar is the ultimate multipurpose tool. Pick it up for $40 from Lowe's.
